Like Breath on Glass: Whistler, Inness, and the Art of
Painting Softly
Forty
beautiful paintings by James McNeill Whistler, George Inness, and other
American artists working around 1900 come together for the first time
in an examination the art of painting softly. As Whistler once stated,
“Paint should not be applied thick. It should be like breath on the surface
of a pane of glass.” The result of this counsel is a body of contemplative
and meditative paintings that, like the mist of breath’s condensation
on glass, appear on the canvas without evidence of the artist’s hand.
